Mod civs (and just ideas)

[RicahMorTis]

In some of the modpacks I have noticed additional civs that are only available to the AI to use. It would be nice to be able to have access to those same AI civs as a player. Maybe even have them expanded upon to allow them to be more playable.
FutureMod - Green Alien and Grey Alien
Master of Mana - Hyboreums, Mercurians and Infernals without having to lose a city but can be played from the beginning. Would also like to play one of the Houses from the beginning of the game.

---> just ideas
maybe a blank slate civ tool to enable players to create their own civs and add them to the game to give a more unique feel to an online challenge without using other civfan established civs, I would like to create some of my own races as choices from other games and not all of them video game related

anyone familiar with the game Galactic Civilization, it would be interesting to see such a modpack created.

 

[awesome]

the only problem with creating your own civilizations and using them online is that some people will make them way too strong. obviously, this is okay for when you're playing by yourself, but a little different when you're playing against other people.

I'm not sure how easy this would be with uniques in the mix. I don't imagine a template for a 2D leaderhead, name and personality would be all that hard, but throwing in uniques, particularly the ability, could complicate things.
